The Witcher 3 is potentially asking The Witcher 4 to hang fire as The Witcher 3 could be getting its first proper DLC expansion in nearly a decade. It’s being outsourced to a different company—if it’s happening—and would follow on from Hearts of Stone and Blood & Wine.
The Witcher 4 is CD Projekt Red’s, well, main project. It’s the long-awaited sequel to 2015’s The Witcher 3 masterpiece. A recent tech demo gave us a huge glimpse into what we can expect. What we didn’t expect was a bombshell rumor that The Witcher 3 is getting more DLC.
As reported by Polish podcasters Rock and Boris (through MP1st), a third major DLC expansion is planned for The Witcher 3.
“From the information we have collected, it turns out that the announced, mysterious project by CD Projekt Red, made by Fool’s Theory, is a story DLC for The Witcher 3. This is confirmed information from several independent sources.”
“What we know is that this is a DLC for The Witcher 3. Based on one piece of information, I can’t confirm it any further, but the earliest it could be is in the future year. We also more or less know the order of the releases: first, mods for consoles, then the DLC for The Witcher 3, then The Witcher 4, and finally, the remake of The Witcher 1.”
It would be fantastic if true, and yeah I can see it being a bridge from W3 to 4.
I guess it’s possible it’s something small too, like the extra quest we got when they patched Series and PS5 versions but it sounds more like something bigger.
Cool coincidence, because I was about to start with Blood and Wine.
This would be awesome! Something to bridge between 3 and 4 would indeed be a great idea.
I’m thinking about starting a new playthrough soon-ish, feeling that Witcher-itch… I have the GotY-edition which I haven’t touched so fresh achievements awaits too!
It’s such an amazing game too. The music, the story, characters, atmosphere, locations. For me combat remains the weaker factor, it’s far from terrible but something is missing.
Man, once 4 finally comes out…what a day that’s going to be.
Yeah speaking of that remake, I still hope it’s coming before 4 because the wait is gonna be a bit painful as it is, so the remake in between would be fantastic. But we haven’t heard a thing about it, in doubt it.
